Book Blurb:

She thought she had left her old life behind . . .
Esther Cherrett comes from a proud line of midwives and was trained
by her mother to take over the family calling. When a terrible scandal
threatens all she holds dear, Esther flees, taking a position as a
teacher in the wild western mountains of Virginia. But instead of the
refuge she was seeking, Esther finds herself in the midst of a deadly
family feud-and courted by two men on opposite sides of the conflict.
All she wants is to run away again.
Yet could it be that her past holds the key to reconciliation-and love?
In this gripping story of trust, deception, and bittersweet loss, you’ll discover the true meaning of choices of the heart.

My Thoughts:

Esther is trained midwife, and comes from a long line of midwives, who is suppose to take over where her mother left off. Esther leaves, rather flees, the seaside area where she and her parents live because she has been taunted over her looks. Even after she tells them about the notes, and letters, she goes against her father and answers an ad to teach in the Appalachian mountains of Virginia. Instead of getting solace she finds herself smack dab in the middle of a family feud, between two cousins, who both want to have her. It all boils down to the choices of the heart. What will her choice be? What is your heart's choice?
I guarantee this book will have you turning pages faster than you can breathe, and keep you up later than you should be. Highly recommended!
